Thank you for checking out Rachel Sigman, Soprano.
Clients and colleagues find Rachel to be effervescent person to work with and a truly inspiring artist on stage. She has performed with opera companies across the country and holds herself to a high standard of professionalism.
Rachel offers all her potential clients a personalized consultation to ensure that their event is the night of their life. Depending on the genre she is to perform, she will ask the client for a list of songs they want her to perform, and will give suggestions based on the clients musical tastes. She then will prepare all the music on her own for the event. She will attend a dress rehearsal for the event. The client will also be given options for her attire based on the formality of the affair.
On the date of the event, Rachel (and her pianist if she is to provide her own) will arrive an hour to an hour and a half early to get ready and to run any songs in the space if necessary. By a half an hour before the event she will be dressed and ready to perform. After the performance, at the discretion of the client, Rachel may stay and talk to guests or excuse herself for the evening.

I perform with a pianist, so there should be a piano or keyboard available. If outside, I would need a microphone. If inside, you'll be able to hear me, believe me.
I will work with you to create a personalized set list of music you would like. (I learn music wicked fast)
